Scottish Executive

Enterprise

Fergus Ewing (Inverness East, Nairn and Lochaber) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive when the First Minister last visited Barmac fabrication yards at Nigg and Ardersier.

Henry McLeish: The fabrication yards at Nigg and Ardersier were visited by Alasdair Morrison and myself, along with Brian Wilson of The Scotland Office, on Thursday 9 December, in recognition of the concern of the whole Executive about the difficulties currently facing the fabrication sector, and which are being faced by Barmac in particular. The First Minister takes a close interest in issues affecting the sector and, while he has yet to visit the Barmac yards, I have briefed him fully on developments there.

Europe

Helen Eadie (Dunfermline East) (Lab): To ask the Scottish Executive what plans it has to meet with the European Union of Co-operatives.

Mr Jack McConnell: The Scottish Executive has not received a request to meet the European Union of Co-operatives, but any request would be considered by Ministers.

Finance

Andrew Wilson (Central Scotland) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive to list the real terms annual percentage increase in actual, estimated and planned spending for each year for which figures are available on schools, education, health, enterprise and industrial development, housing, agriculture, environment and local authority related spending in Scotland.

Mr Jack McConnell: From financial year 1995-96 the real terms annual percentage increase or decreases on spending for the categories requested are below. Of course these figures do not compare like with like, they set out either authority to spend or actual spend.

Health

Mr Keith Harding (Mid Scotland and Fife) (Con): To ask the Scottish Executive whether there has been any increase in the incidence of (a) stomach complaints and (b) digestive system complaints since the introduction of GM foods and whether there has been an increase in the prescription of medicine for these complaints.

Susan Deacon: Information on face-to-face patient/GP consultations is available nationally from a representative sample of General Practices in Scotland.

  An analysis of the recorded incidence of stomach and digestive system disease based on this sample is shown in table 1 below, covering the period from the first introduction in Europe of foods with GM ingredients.

  There are a multitude of possible factors behind stomach and digestive system disease and the existence of any trends cannot easily be attributed to any one factor.

Health

Mr Andrew Welsh (Angus) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive what are the remit, membership and objectives of Clinical Networks in Tayside.

Susan Deacon: The precise remit, membership and objectives of Clinical Networks is a matter for determination by local clinicians. Managed Clinical Networks offer the prospect of delivering high quality services with more uniform access for patients regardless of where in Scotland they happen to live. They also have particular value in encouraging the delivery of services across traditional boundaries between hospital and community care.

Health

Robert Brown (Glasgow) (LD): To ask the Scottish Executive whether it has any plans to encourage consultation between health professionals and representatives of the deaf community regarding the development of objective and agreed information and protocols as to the appropriateness of the use of cochlear implant services, particularly for children.

Susan Deacon: The provision of cochlear implantation in Scotland has recently been reviewed by the National Services Advisory Group, which advises The Scottish Executive on specialist services. Clinicians and representatives of the deaf community were involved in the review. I will make a decision on future provision of cochlear implantation services for Scottish residents when I have had the opportunity to consider the Group’s advice in due course. There are no plans for a further review of cochlear implantation services at this time.

Health

Mr Andrew Welsh (Angus) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive what meetings of the Tayside University Hospitals NHS Trust Board have been held in public since the establishment of the Trust and when these meetings took place.

Susan Deacon: The Tayside University Hospitals NHS Trust assumed its full operational responsibilities on 1 April 1999. The following Trust Board meetings in public session have been held:

Health

Mr Andrew Welsh (Angus) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive whether there any plans to introduce car parking fees for staff and/or patients at Stracathro Hospital, Angus.

Susan Deacon: The Tayside University Hospitals NHS Trust indicates it has no plans at present to introduce car parking fees at Stracathro Hospital.

Health

Robert Brown (Glasgow) (LD): To ask the Scottish Executive when it expects the National Advisory Committee on Alcohol Misuse to report on its proposals for a national strategy to tackle alcohol misuse in Scotland.

Susan Deacon: The Scottish Advisory Committee on Alcohol Misuse has met three times since its establishment in April 1999 and I expect to be in a position to make an announcement early in the new year on its proposals.

Health

Robert Brown (Glasgow) (LD): To ask the Scottish Executive what percentage of NHS patients were accommodated in mixed-sex wards in each year since 1994, broken down by health board area.

Susan Deacon: When Mr Galbraith, as Minister for Health, announced in April 1999 that resources were being made available to end mixed sex accommodation, it was estimated that over 90% of patients going into hospital were already guaranteed a bed on a single sex ward. Further progress has been made since that time. I have asked for a report detailing the up-to-date position at 1 December 1999 and this is currently being compiled.

  I am committed to eliminating mixed sex accommodation from the NHS in Scotland by March 2002. £4.2 million over three years has been made available for this purpose.

Health

Dennis Canavan (Falkirk West): To ask the Scottish Executive what action it is taking on the report of the inquiry into the management of cervical screening in Tayside, Forth Valley and Fife, including clarification of the roles of the national co-ordinator and the local clinical co-ordinators.

Susan Deacon: Following the Inquiry Team's Report into the circumstances which gave rise to the problem with the cervical screening call/recall system in Fife, Forth Valley and Tayside Health Boards, I have asked the three health boards to take immediate action to put in place the operational changes recommended in the report and to complete their work and deliver a full and final report to me by spring 2000. Dr Jocelyn Imrie's, Quality Assurance Director of the Scottish Cervical Screening Programme, review of the call/recall system across Scotland, is due to be completed by the end of March 2000. I understand that the Inquiry Team has already referred their report to Dr Imrie. In addition, I have asked the Cervical Cancer Screening National Advisory Group and the National Co-ordinator of the Screening Programmes to consider the recommendations in the report, including the role of the National Co-ordinator, and to provide me with their views on any further steps required to make the screening service more effective.

  The Scottish Executive is determined to make sure that women have the most effective cervical cancer screening programme possible and therefore these services are kept under constant review to identify ways of improving the record in preventing cancer further. Following extensive reviews, updated guidance was issued to the Service on 14 December. The guidance includes role descriptions for Health Board, hospital based and Primary Care Trust Co-ordinators.

Health

Dr Elaine Murray (Dumfries) (Lab): To ask the Scottish Executive what plans it has to increase public awareness of myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) and the needs of its victims.

Susan Deacon: Myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) is a complex condition, which unfortunately is not fully understood, and has, as yet, no definitive diagnostic test to identify it. The Scottish Executive is very much aware of the concerns of ME sufferers and the Chief Medical Officer in Scotland has met representatives of the ME Association – Scotland, to listen to and address areas of concern to them.

  The difficulties surrounding diagnosis and treatment of ME were recognised in the establishment of a Working Group on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME) by the Chief Medical Officer at the Department of Health in England. The Working Group, which held its first meeting in January 1999, has been tasked with reviewing current management and clinical practice of CFS/ME with the aim of providing best practice guidance for professionals, patients and carers to improve the quality of care and treatment. The Scottish Executive Health Department has observer representation on the Group and is closely monitoring its progress.

  The Scottish Executive will give full and careful consideration to the Report of the Working Group when it becomes available to determine what changes/guidance might be appropriate to current clinical practice and treatment of those with ME in Scotland.

Health

Elaine Smith (Coatbridge and Chryston) (Lab): To ask the Scottish Executive how much funding was spent on research into the causes of myalgic encephalomyelitis in the last five years for which figures are available and what is the projected funding for the next five financial years or those years for which figures are available.

Susan Deacon: The table below gives the relevant information about research on myalgic encephalomyelitis which has been directly funded by the Chief Scientist Office (CSO) in the past five years. CSO has no current projects or applications for future funding under consideration in this area.

  CSO also supports research indirectly through its allocation of some £29 million annually to the NHS in Scotland. Some of this funding may support research with a relevance to myalgic encephalomyelitis. Details of past and current research undertaken on myalgic encephalomyelitis in the UK are available on the National Research Register (NRR), a copy of which is in the Scottish Parliament Information Centre.

  Table: CSO annual expenditure on myalgic encephalomyelitis projects.

Highlands and Islands

Fergus Ewing (Inverness East, Nairn and Lochaber) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive when the First Minister last visited and will next visit the Highlands and Islands; whether he will meet Highland Council; whether he has received written representations from the Council as to the measures and steps which the council wishes to take to tackle the loss of jobs in the Highlands, and what response he will make.

Henry McLeish: The First Minister last visited the Highlands and Islands on 17 September, when he attended an engagement on Iona. His next scheduled official visit to the Highlands and Islands will take place in March when he is due to visit Orkney.

  The Highland Council has made representations to Scottish Executive Ministers on a number of issues related to employment matters in the Highlands and Islands in the wake of the Barmac redundancies. Our response has indicated the desire of the Executive and its agencies to work closely with the Council, including through the Oil Industry Response Team, in framing measures which respond effectively to the job losses. Ministers last met the Convener of the Council on Thursday 9 December during their joint visit to the Barmac facility at Ardersier, and will consider sympathetically any further request by the Council for a meeting.

Justice

Shona Robison (North-East Scotland) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive when the steering group was established to implement the recommendations of The Stephen Lawrence Inquiry: An Action Plan for Scotland , as announced by Mr Jim Wallace on 20 July 1999.

Shona Robison (North-East Scotland) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive how many meetings have taken place of the steering group to implement the recommendations of The Stephen Lawrence Inquiry: An Action Plan for Scotland .

Mr Jim Wallace: Invitations to join the Steering Group have been sent to prospective members. Arrangements for the first meeting of the Group will be made as soon as the membership has been established.

Justice

Shona Robison (North-East Scotland) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive whether it has received a letter from the Chhokar Family Justice Campaign requesting a meeting with the Minister for Justice and, if so, when a reply was sent to them.

Mr Jim Wallace: A letter has been received from the Chhokar Family Justice Campaign requesting a meeting once the case is concluded. A reply has now been sent.

Justice

Irene McGugan (North-East Scotland) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive whether, under the terms of the proposed Freedom Of Information Bill, it will be possible for the Lord Advocate to make available to Skye Bridge protesters the letter of instruction from the Crown Office to the Procurator Fiscal in Dingwall, dated 6 November 1995.

Lord Hardie: No. The letter dated 6 November 1995 contained more than just instructions given by Crown Counsel (including a former Lord Advocate) to a Procurator Fiscal about legal issues arising in this class of case. The Procurator Fiscal was also instructed to undertake further detailed work before seeking instructions from Crown Counsel on whether to take proceedings. The instruction has already been placed in the public domain, Official Report , 2 February, Column 589 and I have similarly arranged for this information to be provided to the Scottish Parliament Information Centre (SPICe).

Justice

Dr Winnie Ewing (Highlands and Islands) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive whether it will make representations to Her Majesty's Government asking it to establish an independent body to look at technical evidence relating to the Piper Alpha disaster.

Lord Hardie: The Scottish Executive is constantly in touch with HMG on a range of matters. The circumstances of the disaster were, however, considered by the First Division of the Court of Session recently in a civil appeal brought by the operators of the Piper Alpha production platform. The Court considered, among other things, the technical evidence relating to the disaster and came to similar conclusions to those reached by Lord Cullen in his Inquiry.

Land Reform

Kay Ullrich (West of Scotland) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive, further to the answer to question S1W-2718 by Mr Jim Wallace on 7 December 1999, in relation to the figure of £34 million quoted as the operating expenses in 1998-99 of the Register of Scotland Executive Agency, what is the level of revenue raised from the charges levied against voluntary groups, community groups and charities for access to information with regard to land ownership.

Mr Jim Wallace: It is not possible to identify without disproportionate effort how much of the fee revenue received by the Registers of Scotland derives specifically from charges levied against such groups and organisations for access to information on land ownership.

Land Reform

Kay Ullrich (West of Scotland) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive, further to the answer to question S1W-2718 by Mr Jim Wallace on 7 December 1999, how that answer can be reconciled with section 25 the Land Registers (Scotland) Act 1868, as amended by the Land Registration (Scotland) Act 1979.

Mr Jim Wallace: My answer of 7 December confirmed that the Land Reform Bill will not exempt voluntary groups, community groups and charities from paying fees for accessing information on land ownership.

  Section 25 of the 1868 Act, as amended, provides inter alia that fees may be charged in respect of the provision by the Keeper of the Registers of Scotland of searches, reports, certificates or other documents or copies of any document or of information from any such register. It would not be appropriate for the costs relating to searches to fall on taxpayers, including those who never have any call to access the registers.

Parliamentary Questions

Mr Kenny MacAskill (Lothians) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive when it intends to answer outstanding questions S1W-1364 and S1W-1366, lodged on 2 September 1999.

Mr Jim Wallace: Questions S1W-1364 and S1W-1366 were answered on 17 January.

Public Appointments

Nick Johnston (Mid Scotland and Fife) (Con): To ask the Scottish Executive when it will update its web page on public appointments (www.scotland.gov.uk/pubappt/publicbodies.asp).

Mr Jack McConnell: The Scottish Executive’s web page which lists all appointments made by the Scottish Ministers to Executive and Advisory non-departmental public bodies, Nationalised Industries, Public Corporations and Scottish NHS bodies within the remit of the Commissioner for Public Appointments will be updated by the end of January 2000.

Rural Affairs

Fergus Ewing (Inverness East, Nairn and Lochaber) (SNP): To ask the Scottish Executive whether it will conduct a study into the economic and social impact which Her Majesty's Government’s proposals regarding the payment of benefits will have on rural Sub Post Offices and consequently on rural areas generally.

Henry McLeish: The UK Government has indicated its commitment to maintaining a network of post offices which can meet its customer requirements throughout the country. The Scottish Executive will continue to ensure that the UK Government is aware of the particular needs of communities in Scotland.

Transport

Mr Murray Tosh (South of Scotland) (Con): To ask the Scottish Executive, further to the answer to question S1W-664 on 20 August 1999, whether it will provide updated details on its projected expenditure on transport in the light of the statement on its expenditure plans made by the Minister for Finance on 6 October 1999.

Sarah Boyack: The updated information is shown below.

  Notes:

  1. Disaggregated figures are not available for road management costs. These cover a range of activities such as traffic calming and management, and consultants fees. The costs are included in these figures.

  2. The Indexed prices are based on the GDP deflators at 9 November, the latest available (the earlier answer was based on GDP deflators at 22 March 1999).

  3. PFI payments are included from 1998-99 onwards.

  4. Expenditure on "Other Transport Programmes" includes Freight Facilities, Grants to Shipping services, Rural Transport Measures, Bus Fuel Duty Rebate, Road Safety Measures, Lifeline Air Service Subsidy and grants for Piers and Harbours including CalMac piers.

  5. The SPTE figures for 1997-98 and 1998-99 are actual grants made to SPTE for rail services. The Plans for 1999-2000 onwards are the best estimates of grant to be provided. Prior to 1997-98 payments to SPTE were made by the constituent local authorities of the SPTA as part of their general expenditure supported by Revenue Support Grant paid by The Scottish Office. Figures for ScotRail have not been included as the provision for the non-SPTE element of the franchise is currently made by the DETR. This responsibility will pass to the Scottish Executive as part of a tranche of functions to be transferred in relation to franchises, including provisions proposed in the UK Transport Bill.

Transport

Mr Murray Tosh (South of Scotland) (Con): To ask the Scottish Executive, further to the answer to question S1W-2875 by Sarah Boyack on 14 December 1999, whether it will identify the 18 bridges determined as adequate, the 20 confirmed failures, and the 20 bridges still being re-assessed; what assessment it intends to make of the 33 bridges not included in the current programme of re-assessment, and whether it will identify these 33 bridges.

Sarah Boyack: The 18 bridges determined as adequate are:

  


A77 London Road 

  

A87 Lon Na H’Iolainn

  Bridge 

  

M8 Hillington Slip Road  

  
 



  Of the remaining 33 bridges, the reassessment programme is being extended to include the following seven bridges where more advanced assessment procedures and experience gained on other structures now offers the possibility of improving the original assessment result:

  


A82 Study 

  

M8 East Whitburn (westbound) 

  

M9 River Carron 

  



A985 Bluther Burn 

  

M8 East Whitburn (eastbound)  

  
 



A9 Kessock 

  

M8 Starlaw Road 

  
 



  The remaining 26 bridges are not considered suitable for reassessment because of their condition or design. Further assessment offers little scope for improving the initial assessment result to a pass although some work may be carried out to reduce the amount of strengthening required.

  


A720 Water of Leith 

  

A87 Broadford
